Very Gentle Flowing Yoga with Kathryn Banks

"My retreats reflect the vast range of training learning and developing over the last 30 years. A unique fusion of soft gentleness and Yang flow with a little bit of Qigong - feeling energy of chi and prana that runs through our bodies then riding its delicate wave in joy and harmony.

In unique fusions yin and Yang flowing style we can take time to dissolve the sometimes inner emotional turbulence we can all get affected by. In the moment of the wave of the movement freedom exists, we can carve our unique path through guidance and inner listening.

My retreats are suitable for everyone, drawn from the training I have had in many yoga styles, Pilates,  advanced Hatha Yoga, Body Balance years, exercise to music in the 1990s, Qigong  and Tai Chi,  Spiritual Awakening, Ayurvedic Pathways……so lots of possibilities for us to venture into and enjoy ultimately ending up with feeling amazing and strong in your body feeling better taking time to laugh and enjoy yourself....happiness."

Each season Kathryn teaches several Free Spirit Holidays, she blends all aspects of her different forms of training into her Flowing Yoga  classes changing it for the different venues.

In Kissamos, Crete, Turkey and also in Italy,  she will teach a smooth blend of Gentle Flowing Yoga, with little pieces of Pilates and Chi Gung, coupled together in new inventive ways to build on our foundation practice and enable us to relax into the present.  Music may be involved to lift us higher into the joy of movement.

In Turkey she will teach her Gentle Flowing Yoga class in the morning and a mixed style class in the afternoons

At India she will be teaching Gentle Flowing Yoga for all abilities.

"My classes are open to everyone and abilities ,the practise is your own journey of inner discovery ,I will guide you.

Finding the union of mind and body (yoga) for your practise is unique,we listen to the bodies wisdom. I’d like everyone to enjoy every beautiful movement, the body reacts to the gentle moving awareness to rebalance our structure. There will also be core strengthening woven in to address postural muscles and access support for the whole body to become toned and strong yet also flexible. Some of our gentle movements will come from qigong and tai chi ideal for strength and focus

Everybody is welcome ot do as much or as little as they need, there are many options are available " Kathryn Banks

Classes are suitable for all levels

THANK YOU, for the week of great yoga, pilates, chi gong fusion mix, I enjoyed it so much. I have found a local teacher leading Chi Gong to continue with it. What you made me realise was, I want/need to rebalance the exercise I do to include a regular weekly Pilates class and Chi Gong, as well as yoga. As the different exercises help me in different ways.

Do let me know of any further yoga holidays you are doing,

Best wishes, Jay - Kisssamos September 2017
